Set on the sixth floor of Potato Wharf’s Whitworth Building, this modern 2-bedroom apartment offers reliable rental income and strong investor appeal. The open-plan living area opens to a private balcony with canal views; the primary bedroom benefits from an en suite. Constructed in 2021, the property has contemporary fittings and an EPC rating of C.
The apartment is currently tenanted until January 2026 at £1,300pcm, providing immediate yield. Vacant possession may be possible after that date for an owner-occupier or for re-letting at revised market levels. An allocated parking space is included—an uncommon and valuable feature for city-centre waterside developments.
Buyers should note the block has undergone external wall system testing and remedial works are due. There is no confirmed schedule of works, and sellers advise there are currently no associated costs to leaseholders; prospective purchasers should verify latest EWS1 and remediation details. Service charge and ground rent (annual averages shown) and an RPI-linked ground rent review schedule are also important ongoing costs to factor into returns.
Overall, this 670 sq ft, leasehold apartment (approx. 131 years remaining) suits investors seeking a city-centre riverside asset with parking and immediate income, or buyers wanting a modern, low-maintenance apartment in Castlefield once vacant possession is available.
